23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat winner last May; yet to score in this sphere but comes here on the back of a good second of eight to Cawthorne Banker in 2m Uttoxeter handicap 30 days ago; enjoys a 4lb weights pull here so very much one to consider. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat winner; quite lightly raced in this sphere and he came in a well-held third of four in 2m3f handicap at Stratford last month; needs to take a step forward. |

Ended winter AW campaign with respectable fourth in February and kept on for third when back over hurdles at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) three weeks ago; also suited by this track and can go well again; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor. |

The only one of these with track experience having been placed in all three visits last winter; 5lb lower than when winning at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in February, but that her only success in 18 starts and she takes on a couple of progressive 3yos here. |

C&D winner in January, 2024; lightly raced since though and has his fitness to prove returning from 15 months off; the market can guide. |
14/1 |

16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Generally very disappointing since 1m3f Kempton novice win on British Flat debut in January 2024, but has become well handicapped and is likely to have entered a few notebooks when keeping on steadily from the rear for sixth in recent Chelmsford race won by Arcadian Nights; watch the betting. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 194y |
9st 12lb |
Won over hurdles and on the Flat (12.5f) at Limerick last year; ran well over timber at Sligo last month, but poor effort back on the Flat at Naas leaves him with questions to answer. |
9/1 |

16th 13 (18) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Won over hurdles and on the Flat (12.5f) at Limerick last year; ran well over timber at Sligo on his penultimate start in a claimer but heavy defeat back on the Flat at Tramore (2m) on latest; well handicapped but needs to rebound back in trip. |
22/1 |

7th 1 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Was in better form last year when winning at Limerick over hurdles and on the Flat (1m5f, good, rated 73); largely struggled in both codes since, although ran to his mark at Killarney last month when sixth (1m4f, good); took second in a Sligo claiming hurdle last time when well treated; others make more appeal. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |
5/1 |
|
1st 5 (1) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Most wins on the AW but it was his third success on the grass when coming home 2.5l to the good over C&D two weeks ago; defying the 5lb rise shouldn't be beyond him. |
9/2 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf but he's in form, creditable third at Lingfield on Good Friday last time; gained last win off 5lb higher (in July 2024); shortlisted. |

Last three runs have been over 1m2f at Newbury and was bang there on each occasion; still on a good mark and has won over this far; seems fine on most surfaces. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
He had been threatening prior to his C&D win in an amateur riders' race three weeks ago; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Has much better strike-rate on AW but has performed well on fast turf here twice in recent weeks (1m3f/1m2f) and is still on a workable mark. |
